Abstarct.  The new algorithm of particle segmentation for using in flow visualization images, based on morphological analyses of images, is proposed. It based on finding so-called watershed dividing line that allows difference particle,whose images overlap. By numbering modeling two methods, new and typical, based on finding local maximum on image, are compared. It is shown, that at defined range of signal-to-noise ratio values the new method find more particle.
